Quitting Sugar is fast becoming one of the leading health trends with more and more people trying to cut it out, or at the very least significantly lower their intake of sugar. But in reality it can be extremely tough to reduce the sweet stuff, especially when it comes to cooking and baking. So when Natvia – the 100% natural sweetener asked me if I could create a recipe for them using their diabetic friendly and virtually calorie free alternative I was intrigued to give it a go and see if a classic sweet dish would still taste the same with no added sugar. The founder of Natvia actually created the product for his wife, who suffered from gestational diabetes when pregnant and so started researching natural alternatives to sugar. Natvia is made from the stevia plant so comes from 100% natural sources, and so I couldn’t wait to give one of my favourite desserts a Natvia makeover to see how it tasted! So, here is my recipe for a Healthy Strawberry Cheesecake – just in time for Valentine’s Day!
